[jcardona1]

I was looking at some pics on the web and i came across this guy listed as an orino. but it looks very different. what do you guys think? ive never seen a fish like this

 

[haynchinook334]

looks like a occel.

with the blue/red fins?? normally i would have thought mono/ocell also but the blue is throwing me off. it looks awesome though!

 

[LBathory]

hybrid?

 

[haynchinook334]

Or a Cichla Pleiozona.

Check out the Occel varents on this sight.

just checked worlddiscus, yeah it could be that but its hard to compare it to pics of dead fish lol

yeah... To bad all the fish are dead. Would be a good reference sight.

Wild Caught Ocellaris develop a tint of blue on their fins as they mature. If you have the right lighting the blue becomes more prominent. This was DM's previous breeder ocell.
